The dataset consists of proton-proton interactions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, collected by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 2 fb -1. The tau leptons are reconstructed in both leptonic and hadronic decay channels. An upper limit on the production cross-sectionmultiplied by the branching fraction at 95% confidence level is set and ranges from 22 pb for a boson mass of 45 GeV/c(2) to 4 pb for a mass of 195 GeV/c(2). %R 10.1140/epjc/s10052-018-6386-8 %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1808.07135 %U https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-018-6386-8 %P 1008-12pp
